For the past few years, Summer Game Fest has been a favorite place for SEGA to release some Sonic game trailers. This has been no different, though things were somewhat spoiled the previous night, due in large part to some leaks. Nevertheless, SEGA has debuted a new trailer for Sonic X Shadow Generations that has revealed some more gameplay and finally announced the release date.
So, what's in the trailer? Well, we got to see Shadow the Hedgehog with wings. But we do get to see Shadow speeding through new zones such as Kingdom Valley and Rail Canyon. As for Sonic, we got to see him in remastered versions of levels from zones such as Seaside Hill, Speed Highway and Crisis City.
Of course, a new Sonic console release from SEGA means that there are special editions of the game and pre-order bonuses, and this is no different. If you pre-order the game, you'll get a Sonic Adventure skin for Sonic and Gerald Robotnik's journal, which details Shadow's creation. There will also be DLC this holiday with a Terios skin for Shadow, a new level, a digital art book and official soundtrack, and more!
As for the release date, prior to today, it was slated for this fall. However, thanks to the new trailer, we now know that Sonic X Shadow Generations will be releasing on October 25th, 2024. SEGA loves late October and November for Sonic console releases, so this isn't necessarily a surprising thing. Still, we have official confirmation of when it will be launching, so if you've been financially planning for this game's release, obviously that's going to be a big help.
That all said, this month is only just beginning! Summer Game Fest Play Days is now getting underway, and it will last for the rest of the weekend. Not only that, but Takashi Iizuka is available for interviews there, so he may have some interesting stuff to say! And don't forget that a Nintendo Direct is supposed to happen this month, so we might see Sonic X Shadow Generations there. So, you'll want to stay tuned to Sonic Stadium throughout the month, because today's Sonic X Shadow Generations trailer might just be the start of a busy month for Sonic fans! In the meantime, check out the trailer:
